How many days can a British passport holder extend their stay in Thailand after a 30-day visa exempt entry?

Thanks for that

@Gary *****

you dont get visa on arrival if Australian. They'll give you an exemption ( no visa) entry of 30 days.

I have not been to Thailand since before covid .

Can Australian still get visa on arrival . As I am planning to come to Phuket for 2 months soon

As a British passport holder you will get what is called a visa exempt stamp upon arriving, not a visa on arrival. The visa exempt stamp can be extended one time only for 30 days at your local immigration office for 1,900 baht.

As said already you can get 30 days visa exempt and extend for a further 30 at an immigration office, have you considered a 60 day visa from your local Thai Embassy/Consulate before you leave and then extend that for another 30 days?

Visa exempt 30 days

TM 30 from where you can stay for extra 30 days and take to closest Immigration office with passport and a passport photo. Immigration will explain what forms you have to fill in. Costv1900bht. You can get visa agent at a cost to make it easier.

British citizens cannot get Visa on arrival which is only 15 days and you apply and pay for it at the airport.

They can get Visa exempt which isn't a visa, it's a free entry stamp for 30 days.

You can extend this one time for an additional 30 days at your local immigration office.

It's much easier, faster and cheaper to apply for a tourist visa through the online evisa system if you intend to stay longer than 30 days. With a tourist visa you'll be stamped in for 60 days and don't have to spend a day at the immigration office.

You can also apply for one 30-day extension on the tourist visa, giving 90 days total.

The Thai embassy in London usually issues these in about 3 business days.

30
